Tyler, Jackie, Pam, and Marc all live on the same street. Tyler lives 1/2 mile from the neighborhood's public school. Jackie lives 5/9 mile from the school. Pam lives 4/7 mile from the school, and Marc lives 2/5 mile from the school. Who lives farthest from the school?

pam

Step-by-step explanation:

you can make all fractions equivalent using a common denominator of 620 or change each to a decimal, then compare:

1/2 = .50

5/9 = .55

4/7 = .57

2/5 = .40

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
